[Taboo + ] We Like To Party

[Ryan James O'Neil]

Ryan watched Madeline from a distance, because really how could be not. But he noticed the little things. The way she walked like she was still on a runway. The way she tucked her hair behind her ear. The mysterious bruises that showed up now and then, only to have her casually cover them up. Some days he wanted to ask her about, but most days he knew she'd deny it anyways. How long would it go on before she'd had enough? Ryan worried the answer was too long. She came back handing him a drink which he thanked her for, placing his hand on her leg briefly when she sat back down, moving it away before anyone would notice. Ryan grinned when lance walked over with Lily, "Oh well that's good, because I was wanting to see her," Ryan smiled at Lily, taking her from Lance. She really was a sweet kid, all cute and tiny. Ryan turned his cheek so she could place a kiss on him and laughed, wrapping his arms around the baby when she giggled and buried her face in his chest, "Oh you know Mack is teaching her everything she knows."

Ryan looked back up when Madeline lightly hit his arm, "what move?" He looked in the direction she was pointing, eyeing the girl she was asking about. Ryan adjusted Lily on his lap, shrugging, "I don't know but she looks like a miniature version of you," he laughed. He watched as the girl headed over to Ryan and then re-focused back on Lily, "Oh, Shane can handle himself." Ryan looked over his shoulder at the girl talking to Shane, "Nah, she doesn't look too groupie like, not flirty enough. It's good he's talking to new people." Everyone knew that Shane and Kat had broken up, and though no one said much about it to Shane, everyone had an opinion on it. Ryan lifted Lily up, making smiley faces at her where she was level with him, and then placing her on his knee and bouncing her around to keep her occupied. He said hi to Scarlet, returning her hug with one arm and smiled. It was good to see her doing well. Especially when she had a rocky past, but she seemed pretty okay lately.

[Alex John Harrison]

“ Hands off, hot shot” he said sarcastically at Felicia before he sat down by her where Zoe had been sitting. “ Who says I’m not good at serenading girls? Just because I’m not serenading you princess doesn’t mean it’s because I haven’t tried. Maybe it’s because I just don’t find you worth woo-ing” . He looked over at her, “ You grew up with Ryan, you know exactly how many girls throw themselves at us during stuff like Warped tour. I’m a kid.. who happens to rock out on stage. I don’t need to woo. Girls literally do it all themselves and… frankly.. you’re a gorgeous set of hair stacked up on some long legs. But if I’m not any different than those scene guys.. how are you any different than the room of gorgeous blondes?” He lifted his eyebrow and smiled at her before he took a drink from his beer and looked back at the fire.

“ You’re a pretty sweet pill to swallow down, O’Neil,” he said, casting her a glance before he looked out at everyone else at the party. Everyone knew that Shane was obsessed with Blink 182. But The Maine and All Time Low were those inspirations to him. He just didn’t feel like spooning them the way Ryan and Shane would spoon Mark Hoppus. Maybe Logan. Maybe. But definitely not Mark Hoppus. “ So if you’re such hot game where is the line of guys?” he said sarcastically before he looked back in her direction with a smirk.

[Riley Scott Collins]

Riley narrowed his eyebrows as he kept his arms wrapped around Mackenzie’s waist. She was starting to explain something but the was interrupted by Blake coming up to them. He made a confused face as she said that she had to go do something with Riley. He waved his free hand at Blake. “ See you later?” he said with a questioning tone since he didn’t really know where Mack was taking him. He looked over his shoulder, making sure that Lily was with someone safe. Ryan. That’ll do. Riley opened his mouth to say something as she pushed him into the elevator but she was already going off on a tangent about how hard it was living with him but not being able to act on anything. He knew that it must’ve been hard for her, he was the one that lost memories, not her. And he really did appreciate everything she was doing, and he sort of felt guilty for holding back so much. It’s not like she made it easy. She was gorgeous. Unfair. Riley sighed as she pushed him into a studio, assuming she was going to yell at him and let him have it. He looked down at her hand as she placed it against his chest and brought his head back up to look at her.

Riley smiled as he listened to her. Girls that took charge were ridiculously hot, and Mack was certainly no exception. He moved closer towards her as she clutched his shirt in her hands and kissed him. Riley leaned down to be closer to her into the kiss. He wrapped his arm tightly around her waist and pulled her body against his. He didn’t need his memories to know a good thing when he saw it. She wasn’t just a beautiful woman. She was a strong one, too. She stuck by him when she didn’t have to. She could’ve taken the easy road out, but instead she helped him rehabilitate basically. She helped him with his daughter which she had no tie to except for an emotional one now. He could argue with her, say that this wasn’t the best time or place. But she’d done a lot for him. Now it was time for him to do something for her, like not complaining about where she decided to do this. He brought his hand up to the side of her neck and gripped his fingers into her hair before he pinned her against the wall. Out of all of the couples they really were the ones that were image wise the most straight laced. Logan used to be a playboy, Chad and Samantha got married in Vegas. Yet they were the ones hooking up at the studio, with a party going on at the roof. Riley kept his lips against hers firmly as he moved his hands away from her and leaned down, picking her up by the back of her legs and wrapping them around his waist.

[Samantha Jade Masters]

Samantha smiled from ear to ear as Chad pulled her into his lap. She took in a deep breath and sighed, wrapping her arms around his neck and shoulder while she looked down at him and rested her forehead against his . “ Yeah well, before there was me, there was Riley. And as his first boyfriend you should probably be nice to him,” she said jokingly before she kissed him again quickly. She wanted to be able to give him so much more than she had. It wasn’t like he would leave her just because she couldn’t get pregnant, and there wasn’t really anything wrong with adoption. It was great for a lot of people, but it just didn’t feel right for them. But with every fertility treatment that didn’t work she just kept feeling like she was failing him. He was more patient than she was, but that was easy when none of this was his fault.

“ The girl?” she asked, looking away and back towards where she had been, but now no one was there. “ She said her name was Claire Fox,” Samantha explained, looking back at Chad. ” She’s a ballet prodigy… I’ve heard the name but she’s sort of too young to know what to expect from her yet. But most importantly.. I think she’s friends with Shane. Which means she’s friends with us. If new friends is gonna help him then we need to support it. I don’t want him to feel like he has to choose between his old friends and new friends.” She laid her head against his chest and played with the ends of her hair. “ I don’t want to disappoint you,”[/b she said quietly.

[Madeline Lea O'Neil]

Madeline smiled at Ryan as his hand touched her leg and then looked back down at her hands in her lap. It should be a pretty big sign to leave her husband when small touches like that meant more to her than any embrace from Patrick did. She turned her head and smiled while watching him interact with Lily. “ You’re really good with her,” she said, resting her chin in her hand as she watched them. Ryan would be a good dad someday. That was another point towards him in the scoreboard. She sighed out of annoyance as he asked what the move. “ The hair move..” she said, reaching her hand into the side of her hair and shaking it out carelessly. ‘ It fluffs it out and makes it look like sex hair. Guys have a thing with hair you know.. “ she said, tilting her head to look at him and smiled. “ Most guys,anyways. Some guys have more of a thing for long legs,” she said, taking his cup from him and having a sip.

Madeline lifted her eyebrow as Ryan talked about her not being groupie like cause she wasn’t flirty enough. “ How bad do the groupies flirt with you?” she said, unable to hide the resentment towards the girls in her tone. “ Wait, what?” she said, realizing that he had said she looked like a miniature Madeline. She scoffed, looking back at the girl. “ Well.. as long as she isn’t some rebound girl. Shane doesn’t need a heartbreak and neither does the girl even if I don’t her… but I don’t think we have to worry. If she’s anything like me in other ways, then Shane wouldn’t like her. I mean can you imagine Shane with a mini Madeline? I’m so not his type,”she said, smirking into the cup as she took another drink. “ Hey,” she said quietly, tapping her knuckle against his knee. “ I love you,” she moved her chair closer to his and set her cup down, moving her arms to play with Lily that way she could be closer to him without it looking suspicious.

[Logan Chase Renner]

Logan slid his phone into his pocket, having had just shut it off and didn't plan on using it to talk to anyone. Everyone he would want to talk to was here, and anyone else would have to wait until Monday morning. That's just the way Logan worked, his job was important to him, but he knew where to draw the line between work and his personal life. He had to do it everyday, his own wife was one of his recording artists. That sometimes caused issues but they got through it somehow. They always worked things out. Logan waved back at Blake and then headed over to the fire, standing beside Lance and placed a hand on his brothers shoulder, holding his drink in his other free hand and took a sip. Watching Ryan and Lily. There was no doubt everyone in the group had accepted her and everyone was good with her in their own way. It was reassuring, knowing they had so many supportive friends around for when his daughter was around. If him and Blake ever needed help with anything, he at least knew he had a whole group of people to depend on. December couldn't come soon enough. And Logan realized, even with Kat not here and Ryan and Madeline technically broken up... everyone still seemed to pair off. Speaking of pairing off, Logan looked down at his brother and saw that oddly enough, Kiersten wasn't beside him or draped over him like usual. He wondered what was up with them lately. Logan knew Kiersten was kind of throwing herself into her studio work, and Lance had been on set a lot lately... but they didn't seem as close as they used to be. Logan leaned down, "Hey, where's Kiersten, I told her to stop working or I'd lock her out of the studio's but you might have to go drag her out. Maybe she'll listen to you." Logan liked a driven, ambitious person as much as the next person, but Kiersten was usually pretty evenly split between work and play. She still liked being a kid. It just didn't seem like her to be working this much.

Logan walked back over to Blake who had bee talking to Mack but was now by herself. He wrapped his arms around her, kissing her. She was still the same Blake to him. The same girl who liked staying up late writing music. The same girl who liked to pick on him for being a boy band guy. The same girl who had that wild curly hair he loved. "I love when we have parties. Like nothing much has changed." He took her hand, walking her over to the drink table, filling a cup with ice and then poured in grapefruit juice, handing it to her. "I was thinking, we could take a weekend off, take a trip or something. We could both use a couple of days off, don't you think?" Logan didn't know about Blake but he needed a weekend to recharge, with this album having just come out and all. And now that they were pretty much all settled in at the new office, he could finally take a little breather. Plus he liked to keep Blake as unstressed as possible as often as he could.

[Kiersten Mollie Bannon]

Kiersten yawned, playing back the track in her head phones, pretty pleased with it. She'd been working on some music tracks for Ellie, stuff she could record to later after Kiersten was finished toying with lyrics. She never thought about herself writing songs, and quite frankly she really wasn't sure they'd be that good, but she was giving it a go, more out of curiosity to see if she was any good at it than anything. She figured she didn't have anything to lose. And yeah everyone thought she was working over time, but he extra time she spent in the studio she was doing her own little side project and she didn't feel she wanted to share it with anyone just yet. Maybe Lance, but only because she knew he'd stay mum about it. She took off her head phones, yawning once more. She was tired but it wasn't like she was going to go to bed early and miss out of the party. She didn't want t be a party pooper either. Maybe she could just nap a quick little nap, just to wake her up a little. Five to ten minute nap, give or take. That was all she probably needed. She sighed, her elbow on the armrest and laid her head in her hand, closing her eyes, thinking she'd just rest for a few minutes, then she'd head to the party. All she saw when she closed her eyes was the sound board, and the piano keys, and notebook paper with lines of notes on it. She didn't even realize when she drifted off to sleep...

Kiersten stood in the sand, feeling the warmth on her feet and the bright sun on her skin. She had to squint to even see around her. She looked around seeing herself on a small island with like, on palm tree and some bushes and all around her island were like a gajillion other islands with all her friends on them. She looked to her left, seeing her sister on an island with Riley and Lily, and on her right she saw Blake and Logan, and a baby that looked like a tiny body with Blake's head on it. Weird. Kiersten sat down, thinking she could get a tan, but looked across the water and saw Lance on an island by himself. She called across to him, thinking his island looked way cooler. He had like, a cabana on his island and a bartender. And lounge chairs. And a jacuzzi and a house up on a hill in the back surrounded by island jungleness. Why did her island suck so bad? She waved at him and he waved back from a distance. She noticed a rowboat on his island, thinking he could row over and get her. "Lance, take your rowboat and come get me, my island sucks!" she yelled, standing up. "What?" he asked, "Why would you want to be on my island? I can see you from here, you seem fine over there." "But..." Kiersten trailed off, not understanding why he wouldn't want her to come over there. He wanted her to stay over here? But they were best friends! She really, really wanted to be over there and not over here. But he wanted her to stay over here. "Why don't you want me to come over there?" she asked, holding her hands up in question. He looked at her like he was crazy, "We're good on separate islands, don't you think? I think you're getting sunburned, you should probably do something about that." Kiersten looked down at her skin tat was now completely burned. When she looked up she saw Dani on a rowboat, her skin perfectly tanned and she was getting out on the beach by Lance. She wasn't as red as a lobster. Lance walked over to her and kissed her, what the heck? Kiersten just didn't understand, and called him again, "Lance!" Both of them turned to look at her, and Dani burst out laughing, "Look at you, a lobster!" Kiersten furrowed her eyebrows, she knew she was burnt, bu that wasn't a reason not to like her. She looked down at herself and realized what was so funny, she was wearing a lobster suit? She looked up, confused and upset and saw the gap of water between them getting bigger and bigger, farther and farther away, until Lance and his island were just a speck, and she was on her island, with no one in sight for miles...


Outfit
Lobster suit?

[Shane Alexander Madden]

Shane nodded, filling up balloons and handing them to Claire so she could tie them, "Yeah, I kinda live in the studio when its time for recording. That's why all of our studios are so personally decorated," he laughed. It was true all of the studios had different elements that represented all of them personally, All Time Low's studio probably being the most cluttered, butt hat was only because their were four of them and they had like fifteen different guitars liked using. She was right, it was like a home away from home, and it was definitely like a whole other family. Shane handed her another balloon, shaking his head, "Well, for me it's not about who listens to my stuff and likes it. People could think it was garbage and I would still write music. It's just what I do. I don't do it for them, I just do it for me. I'm sure you're dance is the same. It shouldn't be about how many people at your recital are there by choice or were dragged there, at the end of the day, you still love what you're doing and it doesn't matter who else enjoys it, just so long as you're enjoying it. I don't know, maybe it's just me..." he trailed off, shrugging and turning off the sink. Shane helped her put all the balloon in a bucket before stepping away from the sink and following her, "Okay but I'm warning you, it's seriously cluttered in there, you can barely walk to the other side of the room," he laughed. As she turned to face him and took his hat, he made a face to protest but just smiled when she messed up his hair. That was fine with him, "Alright, that's cool, I like it messy anyways..." he said before leading the way down the hallway and headed into his own studio.

Right off the bat he tripped over a gorilla mask, picking it up quickly, "oh, watch your step," he laughed, making his way to the middle of the room. There were two drum sets, probably about fifteen guitars on stands on walls and around the place, whether they were electrics, acoustics, a bass guitar here and there. Microphones, amps, a LOT or wires and cords all over the place, not to mention a slew of rolling chairs, stools, a couple a bean bag chairs. And of course there was a massive sound board in what Logan called "the cave" since it was just big enough for the soundboard and it was all walled in between the big room and the recording booth for vocals. Their studio was a little different then the others, being that the big main room wasn't just a room to hang out it, it was also designed for recording, all the walls not just painted, but were sound proof. You couldn't just move all the instruments into the small recording booth after all. A lot of the studio's had a green/red light to indicate whether you could go into the recording booth, but their studio had a red/green light outside the studio in the hallway so people didn't walk in on a very loud recording session. Especially since everyone was so close, it was common for everyone to walk into each others studios. "Well," Shane said, plopping down in a leather rolling chair, "This is where we record. Obviously we haven't been lately, having just got back from tour and all and the album being released but, should be back in here pretty soon. I want to record a few things before we go back on tour." He leaned back in his chair and stretched his feet out, "You're studio this disorganized?" he laughed, raising his eyebrows.

[Natalia Anne Richmond]

Natalia sat down on the couch as she waited for Anthony to come back downstairs. Ethan and Claire were both out. Bummer. Natalia was actually looking forward to seeing Ethan. Oh well. Some other time. Natalia puffed her cheeks ans then slowly let the air out. She laid her head back on the couch and sighed loudly. "I'm coming." she heard Anthony call out. She laughed and stood up slowly. Maybe she was a bit overly dressed for their birthday dinner together, but oh well. As she started to walk into the kitchen, Joel's ringtone played loudly on her phone. Natalia smiled and quickly read the text. "Uh oh." she said as she stared at the phone. The party. She totally forgot about it. Just then Anthony came down the stairs, "That look doesn't seem good. What's up?" Natalia looked up at him. "I'm sorry...I...I...forgot about this thing...I can totally cancel." Anthony shook his head, "No. We're going. I don't care what it is."

They pulled up to the building and Natalia got out and walked over to Anthony on the other side of the car, "I owe you BIG time." she kissed him on the cheek and looped her arm through his and walked through the door and headed to the elevator. She pushed up and they stepped into it and pushed the top button. Natalia rested her head on Anthony's arm, still looped through hers. "What if they don't like me?" She sighed. That's one thing she was always so afraid of. People not liking her. That was one thing she needed to get over. The doors opened and Natalia took a breath in and walked off with Anthony. "We won't stay long." she said as she saw Joel and headed over to him. "Hey." she said as she got to him. "Sorry I'm late." she hugged him and then let go. "Joel this is Anthony, Anthony this is Joel." she smiled.

[Anthony Marcus Owen]

Natalia made him feel slightly under dressed, so Anthony had to go back upstairs and put something a little nicer on. He changed quickly and then heard Natalia sigh too loudly downstairs and he laughed. "I'm coming." he called as he walked across the hall and into the bathroom. He brushed his teeth quickly and then headed out of the bathroom and down the stairs. Anthony heard Natalia say something that sounded like "uh oh" as he reached the bottom of the stairs. Her face wasn't a good one."That look doesn't seem good. What's up?" Just then Natalia looked up at him and he knew it wasn't right. "I'm sorry...I...I...forgot about this thing...I can totally cancel." Anthony quickly shook his head. He figured it had to do something with that new record label. She was talking about it ever since the tour she took. "No. We're going. I don't care what it is."

Anthony got out when Natalia did. "You do owe me. Just for this, you owe me a Netflix movie night. An all nighter too." he smiled when Ntalia kissed him on the cheek. He'd do anything for her, she was his best friend, his little sister. He would never make her miss out on an opportunity to further her career, even if it did take over her time tie with her friends. He understood. He laughed when she asked what if they didn't like her, "They'll love you. You know that." He walked off the elevator with her and stood there when he hugged some kid. Natalia introduced them to eachother and he shook Joel's hand, "Nice to meet you man."

[Claire Jayne Madden]

Claire laughed at the face that Shane had made, as though he was going to argue the fact that she had taken his hat away from him. She had to agree with what he said though about doing art because it made you happy and not doing it for anyone else. Even if the auditorium was empty she would keep dancing just because she loved it. "Good point..." she said, smiling at him as she followed him down the hallway to his studio. She figured she should get to know this place a little better. Of Natalia was going to be signed here, and if she was going to continue being friends with Shane then she would be spending a lot of time here. " Oh wow..." she said, stepping inside carefully after Shane had tripped into his own studio.

Claire smiled as she looked around, watching Shane take a seat and had to admit she was kind of amazed. All Time Low's studio. Damn. Claire looked at his legs and debated with herself. Ordinarily she would just lounge on him. But she was with Anthony, and while she might not care about lounging her legs on Shane's lap when they were just hanging out on the couch athome, it did seem like it would be a bit different to do it in a place that meant so much to Shane. Studios were sacred she understood that firsthand. Instead she sat down in a leather chair opposite of him and looked at the soundboard. " I love it... I love how messy it is. I mean, no. Its nothing like mine. But I think that's why I love it " she smiled, looking back at the studio. She loved the fact that it was so.... Shane . She cleared her throat jokingly as she leaned forward and decided to mess with some of the switches. Shane could fix all of it later.. he'd probably have to anyways. " Tell me what you think," she said jokingly before she started harshly singing out a verse of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. She laughed and shook her head. "Alright. I'll leave the soulful seductress thing to Natalia. She's got the pipes for it. I just have the feet" she said, lounging back in her chair. Claire closed her eyes and sighed, thinking about everything that life had waiting for her outside of this studio. She opened her eyes slowly and spun the chair to look at Shane. " You ever wish you could stay in here forever? To not have to answer to what life threw at you ? Just hide out. It's a lot easier than disappointing people.". Claire bit the inside of her lip before she puffed out her cheeks and smiled. " Alright, Scooby. Let's go throw some water at people,". She stood up and grabbed his arm, pulling him out of his chair as she headed out of the studio. " You can check my studio out sometime. If you're ever that bored," she laughed, heading back into the hallway. Claire handed Shane the bucket of water balloons and made her way back towards the elevator.

Once the elevator doors had opened she narrowed her eyebrows seeing that Anthony was there with Natalia. She licked her lips distractedly. Even if things had been what...weird.. between them, he still looked good. She sighed quietly to herself before she turned and looked at Shane. " Right. Water balloons.Actually.. Are you thirsty? I'll meet you over by the edge of the roof. I'm gonna grab us some beers. K?" she smiled again, wrapping her arms around his neck in another hug. " I really am proud of you. Congratulations again.... I'll be right back,".Claire stepped away from him and made her way over to Natalia, Joel and Anthony. " Hey." she said to Natalia, singling her out. She didn't really care about Joel, and Natalia was her best friend. " Do you ever not be the hottest girl in the room?" she said with a smile before she hugged her." You look gorgeous. I'm glad you're signing to this label. It'll be good.." she said with a nod. " Well... I actually uh.. gotta get back to water balloons. But. You look great. I'll text you later." she hugged her again quickly before she made her way over to the drinks table to get her and Shane a beer. It wasn't often at parties that she sort of felt like an outsider, and it was strange that she felt more like one with her friends than she did around people she had just met. But this type of thing wasn't for people like her. It was for the Natalia and Joel's of the world. Claire picked up the beers and headed back to where she saw Shane. If it wasn't for him she would just leave right now; I mean, she only came because it was his'congrats' type of party. That's why Blake had invited her anyways. She didn't want to be a bad friend by just leaving, but her studio sounded like a sanctuary right now. " Alright Madden. Teach me all you know," she said, handing him a beer before she stepped back and picked up one of the water balloons. Claire held onto the ledge as she looked over to see who was walking down before she looked back at Shane and smiled. She stuck the balloon down the back of his shirt quickly before she hugged him so hard, slapping her hand against the balloon to make it pop.

[Joel Carter Foster]

Joel was staring at Jack Barakat like he was a complete idiot, but at the same time was completely entertained. Shane’s band.. they were something else. He laughed before he took a drink from his cup and looked up in time to see Natalia getting off of the elevator. “ Excuse me guys,” he said, setting his cup down. Gorgeous girl with a nice set of legs, or spending time with guys who were entertained by bodily functions and trying to “outgay” one another. Really not that hard of a choice. Besides when it came to friends pretending to be gay and in love, that award went to Riley and Ryan. He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her when she hugged him. “ You’re not late.. the party didn’t even start until you get here,” he said, lowering his arms from around her. “Hey man nice to meet you,” he said, giving a nod in Anthony’s direction. He wasn’t really sure who the guy was, but he never told Natalia she couldn’t bring anyone with her. It probably made her feel more comfortable.

Joel turned over his shoulder as he heard Claire approach them and watched as she wrapped her arms around Natalia. It was sort of ridiculous how gorgeous girls seemed to stick together. You never really saw a hot girl best friends with an ugly girl. Just didn’t happen, maybe it was against nature. Whatever it was, he was thankful for it. He grinned, giving a look at Anthony before he looked back at the girls hugging. Go ahead and keep doing that.He watched as Claire left immediately and made her way back over to Shane. Maybe her and Anthony weren’t friends. Whatever. “ Mind if I steal her for a bit?” he looked up at Anthony with a grin before he wrapped his arm around Natalia’s shoulders and began to steal her away. “ Did you happen to watch me on Good Morning America? “ he questioned since he had done his first television performance about a week ago and things had been really taking off for him since then, atleast Logan seemed pleased with it anyways. “I have a surprise for you,” he smiled, looking back at her as he placed his hands in his front pockets. He had hounded Logan to figure out which studio would be Natalia’s.

[Natalia Anne Richmond]

Natalia smiled when Joel returned the hug and said the party didn't start until she got there. Anthony was being friendly, which she knew he would, but she felt so bad for him. They had a planned dinner for his birthday and now they were here. It always seemed like she had things to do. That's what this lifestyle consisted of. She instantly smiled again as Claire walked over and hugged her. "Hey, I had no idea you were going to be here." She looked down at her dress and smiled again when she said she looked gorgeous. "Thank you. New shoes." she said as she lifted her right foot up a bit and then put it back down. Just as fast as Claire was there, she was leaving again. Natalia looked up at Anthony and shrugged.

Natalia smiled up at Anthony as he said he didn't mind if Joel stole her. She mouthed "Thank you." and wrapped her arm around Joel and walked with him. She did actually watch him, "I did. You were great." she smiled at him. For his first time, he actually did really well. Natalia remembered her first live television performance. "I really did enjoy your performance." Natalia looked back at Anthony one more time and then brought her attention back to Joel. "A surprise? I love surprises." she smiled.
